Female supporting roles rely on food to save themselves

Chapter 431 Good Medicine
It is now April, the sun has set, the capital is full of water, and the wind at night is humid, always carrying a wave of moisture. Whenever it blows on a person's body, it seeps into the inside along the cracks in the bones, making people feel cold. There is no warmth in the body.

Gu Xiang also shrank his neck, took the cloak from Xue Ying and put it on.

Miao Laoliu silently stood up from the ground, Zhang Kuai took two yamen servants and took a step forward unconsciously, with a vigilant look, Miao Laoliu shook his head: "Don't worry, I won't run away after all."

He rubbed his face, and suddenly smiled, showing a little gentleness on his face.

These years, his life has been muddled, and life is worse than death, but in the vast darkness, it is not all black mud.

He also met some things that made him happy, warmed his heart, and met people who made him feel distressed.

"That's a good woman. Her life will be better without me."

Two years ago, Miao Laoliu picked up a girl from the matchmaker. The woman was bought by the matchmaker from Jiangnan. Money to treat her illness, throw people out.

At that time, Miao Lao Liu had lost his good intentions. He only saw that the woman was slender and looked a bit like his wife. After all, he felt a little bit of compassion, found a place for her, and invited her The doctor treated the disease.

In the beginning, Miao Laoliu did a good deed that day to accumulate virtue for his wife and daughter, but this woman was sold by her parents in the south of the Yangtze River, and she had nowhere to go. She went to fend for herself, so he helped her settle down and gave her a few taels of silver to settle down, so that the woman could do some embroidery to make a living.

"She gave herself a new name, Juansu. I thought there was a natural sadness in this name, but she liked it, so she called it that. Juansu is a good woman. She has been doing laundry for me for the past two years. Meals, tidying up the house, not only did she not have a title, but she didn't even give her any tenderness."

Miao Laoliu shook his head and smiled wryly, "She is a resilient woman just like my wife, as long as you give her a way to survive, she can catch her, so you don't have to worry about her."

Detective Zhang was anxious about the heir of Liu Guogong's family, so he couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable at this moment, so he could only say in a cold voice with a straight face: "Your crime should probably be exiled, if she is willing to follow you, I think it will be You can live in exile."

Miao Laoliu was silent for a moment.

Xue Ying lowered his head and said softly: "He has no intention of seeking death."

After a pause, Xue Ying chuckled softly: "Things like seeking death are more likely to be exhausted in one go. Don't care how much grief is hidden in your heart. In the end, death is worse than life."

"And, time is the best medicine."

Miao Laoliu loves his wife and daughter deeply, but after so long, he has now fallen in love with another woman. Those hurdles that he may think he will never pass will actually pass sooner or later.

Gu Xiang: "...Anyway, I just want this 'thank you banquet' to be safe."

She didn't want to take care of herself, and it was still at her thank-you banquet.

"Speaking of..."

Gu Xiang looked up at the sky, and asked in surprise, "Where are Chef Xie and the others?"

Since yesterday, Xie Shang and Xie Bin have been going to Gu Ji for a walk from time to time. Gu Xiang has been preparing new dishes and doesn't care about them. Hearing from Qiu Li and others, Xie Shang is almost like a mushroom They have grown in their garden, and they can’t eat staple foods such as big vegetables, buns, wontons, finger cakes, scallion pancakes, etc. With Gu Ji’s absolute signature pickled radish and meat sauce, pickled fish can also satisfy .

Since this morning, Gu Xiang has seen Xie Shang twice and Xie Bin three times. She has been guarding the kitchen and only went out a few times. It can be seen how much the two chefs of the Xie family are looking forward to the "thank you banquet". .

But now the sun was setting and the thank-you banquet was coming to an end, it was strange that there was no figure of Chef Xie.

There are several famous chefs who are well-known in the capital, but at this moment, everyone is immersed in the fresh fragrance of "Buddha Jumping over the Wall", and is frightened into a cold sweat by Miao Laoliu. It is so exciting that no one has paid attention to Chef Xie's whereabouts for a while. .

In fact, Chef Xie didn't like to attend this kind of banquet for two years.

He has a rich family and a high status, and even several of the royal chefs in the palace call him senior brother, and some of them have been apprentices by his side for two years. Naturally, if he doesn't want to socialize, he will not socialize. No one is good. Pick his gift.

Gu Xiang was just a little surprised, but didn't pay much attention to it. After regaining his senses, he found a place to sit down and drink tea while waiting for the results of Kaifeng Mansion.

Before a cup of tea was finished, two yamen servants rushed over panting to report: "Boss Zhang, I found it... Xiao Shizi has been sent to the hospital. The doctor said that he is very weak, but his life is not in danger."

Inspector Zhang quickly breathed a sigh of relief, and looked back at Miao Laoliu, who also had a rather complicated expression on his face. He opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything. You can't stop looking after the cook, and spoil your good banquet."

Gu Xiang smiled: "It's nothing, it has provided me with a good test product."

Gu Xiang is also a novice in the somewhat mysterious way of cooking with emotion.

"For such a dish, you really need to grasp the degree."

If you can't handle it well, Gu Xiang is really a little worried that the gourmet food he cooks to earn food points will suddenly turn into a murderous dish, which is very lively.

"Murderer Chef?"

Gu Xiang shivered and clicked his tongue. She didn't like such a nickname at all, it was worse than murdering a famous doctor.

The thank you banquet is over.

Although the diners were still a little bit unsatisfied, they were quite satisfied, and even Zhao Han couldn't help but patted his belly with satisfaction.

Gu Xiang personally sent Inspector Zhang and the diners out, and when they reached the door, Inspector Zhang hesitated for a moment, then turned around and said in a low voice: "Chef Gu, the case where Xue Gui replaced Xue Shan, and the case of the robber Ning Yufei There seems to be something hidden in the case, and now Zhang Sheren and Mr. Di are in charge of the case, I heard that a few days ago, Ning Yufei was almost murdered in Dali Temple."

Catcher Zhang let out a breath quickly: "After all, Chef Gu...be careful."

Gu Xiang smiled lightly and blinked: "Okay."

While talking, Xue Ying raised his head abruptly, and saw the sky in the east was fiery red, and the diners were also terrified, their slightly drunkenness was swept away, and they all looked up.

I saw thick smoke billowing in the air in the east.

"Ouch, the direction of my home."

Many diners who lived in the east rushed out and ran all the way.

Zhang Kuai's expression changed even more, he assigned two men to escort Miao Lao Liu, and he rushed over with the others.

Gu Xiang also frowned, and was hesitating when he saw Zhao Han and other diners rushing out shouting.

These diners, there are many who don't like to meddle in their own business, but now the emotion in their chests has not subsided, and all of them are passionate.

Gu Xiang: "...Let's go."
